The Carretera Austral is a mostly unpaved road that connects the most rural part of Patagonia in the very south of Chile. Tourism in this area is not as pronounced as it is in other parts of the country, as regular bus routes, accommodations and detailed info is hard to find.
But in this seclusion lies the attraction and a special charm. During my last trip I met very few travelers from Europe and North America. The locals welcomed me warmly and most attractions were not crowded.
After traveling this route twice via hitchhiking I thought it is about time that I put together a handy Carretera Austral guide which highlights the main sights along this 1200km long road. The video shows you my favorite places to visit from north to south, starting in Puerto Montt and finishing in Villa O’Higgins.
To do the Ruta 7 properly I recommend about 2 weeks - following I list all the places I visited & Things to do along the Carretera Austral:
- Fjords, Hornopiren, Pumalin Park, Chaiten
- Queulat National Park, Queulat Glacier, Puyuhuapi
- Rio Futaleufu, Futaleufu
- Cerro Castillo, Villa Cerro Castillo
- Marble Caves & Lago General Carrera, Puerto Rio Tranquilo
- Exploradores Glacier, Puerto Rio Tranquilo
- Rio Baker, Cochrane
- Caleta Tortel
- Villa O'Higgins
- O’Higgins Glacier
---About the Patagonia Expedition---

Fly Fishing Chilean Patagonia 2018 | Hopper Action Coyhaique Chile
Fly Fishing Patagonia has been a long held dream from me and last week it was finally time to realise it. I ventured to the Chilean side of Northern Patagonia where I rented a car in Coyhaique a great base for fly fishing exploration. However, the area around Coyhaique is heavily used by agriculture and therefore there is not much vegetation. However, I found river that suited my needs further North and South. What striked me about fly fishing in Chile was the amazing hopper action around midday - just amazing!
As usual for ExpediTom travels, this was an independent mission searching for places to fish without guides or lodges in order to keep the tight budget.
Although there are many water to fish, access isn't always easy. Most lands in Chile are private and fenced so you are not allowed to cross it unless you ask for permission. Speaking Spanish would have been extremely helpful at this point. Nonetheless, there is usually access from bridges and the river banks are public land.
If you have any questions feel free to ask :)

Petrohue Falls and The Carretera Austral -- Chile Travel Vlog
We started our journey down the Carretera Austral visited Petrohue Falls, and missed the boat.
Greg's Channel:
Day 1 of our journey down the famous Carretera Austral did not go as planned. We started the day off pretty brilliantly. We shot some photos on the Petrohue River and then went to Petrohue Falls to shoot some photos just after sunrise. And, everything was stunning. In fact, this might be the coolest view in all of South America.
We weren't allowed in Petrohue Falls for sunrise for some reason, but even at 9am when we finally got in, it was beautiful. From the falls, you have the incredible Osorno Volcano in the background. I'm not sure there's a more perfect view anywhere. Nature just blows me away.
Leaving Petrohue Falls, we headed south down the Carretera Austral. Unfortunately for us, we didn't realize that the ferry only travels once a day and we missed the boat.
So, we ended up stuck somewhere in Chile called Hornopiren for the night.
On the bright side, where we got stuck was pretty photogenic and we still managed to get out and shoot some photos.
Tomorrow, we continue our journey down the Carretera Austral here in Chile.

The Carretera Austral is a 1200km long road in the south of Chile which connects the most remote areas of the country. The ruta 7 is a paradise for adventure seekers as it is a mostly unpaved road which brings you to the lesser known parts of Patagonia in the stunning Los Lagos and Aysen Region.
Our plan was to get from Puerto Montt till Villa O’Higgins by thumb to get in touch with locals and fellow adventurers along the way. After making our way down from Puerto Montt to Puyuhuapi in the last episode we are trying to hitchhike down to Coihaique to rest for a few days - as it turns out we have to deal with a lot of rain and we need several rides that day to go down south with the Bosque Encantado being one of the stops.
After a few days we continue hitchhiking and get a lift by Cesar who takes us all the way to Villa Cerro Castillo where he is in the process of building a hostel for adventurous travelers like us as this place is all about the hike to Cerro Castillo which can be done in 4 days or in one day. We chose the day hike option and got rewarded with stunning views and impressive colors.
The next stretch should take us further down to Puerto Rio Tranquilo. We got lucky again as an english couple offered to take us all the way. After our arrival in Puerto Rio Tranquilo we met up with my old friend Pato who owns a tour company (explorasur.cl) and offered to take us to the most popular sight: the marble caves of Puerto Rio Tranquilo.
This part of the trip was executed within 1week by using altogether 5 rides via hitchhiking - following I list all the places we visited & Things to do at the Carretera Austral:
- Puyuhuapi
- Queulat National Park / Parque Nacional Queulat
- Bosque Encanta
- Coyhaique / Coihaique
- Cerro Castillo / Villa Cerro Castillo
- Puerto Rio Tranquilo
- Marble Caves / Capillas de Marmol
- Lago General Carrera
I'm excited to share all our experiences in Patagonia over the course of the next 6 weeks with you. In the next episodes we will Hitchhike the southern part of the Carretera Austral, ice hike over the glaciers of the southern Patagonian Icefield and meet impressive characters along the way.
The Patagonian Expedition is a 95% self funded video documentary project following my trip in 2012/2013. Our aim is to show you the beauty of the rather unknown parts in Patagonia alongside with the famous spots.
Beside beautiful landscape you can expect loads of information and our personal experiences and struggles along the way.

Capillas de Marmol - Chile, Patagonia
Sobre el Lago General Carrera se encuentran estas formaciones de mármol que fueron utilizadas como cantera hasta que en el año 1994 se las nombró Monumento Nacional. La erosión del agua moldeó extraños contornos en la piedra, creando atractivas formaciones. Se pueden visitar en lanchas que parten desde Puerto Río Tranquilo (ubicado a 223 km de Coyhaique, capital de la Región de Aysén), y desde el pequeño embarcadero de Puerto Mármol, que cuenta también con kayaks para acercarse a las formaciones.

COYHAIQUE, CHILE
Coyhaique (Spanish pronunciation: [koiˈaike]), also spelled Coihaique in Patagonia, is the capital city of both the Coyhaique Province and the Aysén Region of Chile. Founded by settlers in 1929, it is a young city. Until the twentieth century, Chile showed little interest in exploiting the remote Aisén region. The Carretera Austral road opened in the 1980s. The Carretera Austral (CH-7), formerly known as Carretera General Augusto Pinochet,[1][2] is the name given to Chile's Route 7. It runs for 1240 km from Puerto Montt in the north to Villa O'Higgins in the south. Some call it the road after the end of the road, because it is not officially part of the Panamerican Highway that ends on the island of Chiloe Island. Construction of the road started in the 1970s and is still going on. It passes through very beautiful and sparsely populated parts of Chile. Landscapes vary from forests and fjords to spectacular mountains, glaciers and volcanoes.
